The Buffalo Bills begin their quest to win the Super Bowl Sunday afternoon when they host the Arizona Cardinals for their 2024 NFL regular-season opener. To get you ready for the opener, on this week’s episode of the Billieve podcast, we’re joined by Seth Cox, managing editor of Revenge of the Birds, the SB Nation website dedicated to covering the Arizona Cardinals. This is the first time Arizona has come to Buffalo since the 2016 season and, on the surface, Sunday’s game appears to feature two teams on opposite ends of the NFL’s power rankings. The Bills are searching for their fifth consecutive AFC East title, while the Cardinals suffered through a 4-13 campaign last year. But Arizona won’t be a pushover. Cox offers up his thoughts on the expectations for the Cardinals this year, including how quarterback Kyler Murray is reverting into a dangerous dual-threat capable of leading a potent offense. Cox shares how he thinks the Cardinals will utilize talented rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr.,; why running backs James Conner and Trey Benson give Arizona a formidable ground game; how the Cardinals are the league’s most effective team when utilizing 13 personnel (three tight ends) and why tight end Trey McBride is going to be a difficult matchup for the Bills to contain. Defensively, the Cardinals were among the worst in the NFL last year, and the prognosis doesn’t look much better this year. We explore how quarterback Josh Allen, running back James Cook, tight end Dalton Kincaid, and wide receivers Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Curtis Samuel should be able to take advantage of their matchups as Allen and the offense appear poised for a big day. We close by offering up score predictions as the Bills look to win their third straight home opener and hold off a Cardinals team that’s potent on offense and porous on defense.
